Is Consolidated Edison Inc stock A Buy?
Consolidated Edison Inc holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate.

Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.
